Tour the homes of the Historic Village as the residents prepare for a Birthnight Ball and explain the customs of the time. Visit the home of the Howell Works Manager as the ladies of the household prepare authentic 19th Century Washington’s Birthday Celebration recipes and learn why engravings of George and Martha Washington hang on the wall of the front parlor.

Make it a point then to join the residents and employees of the Howell Works Company, at the Historic Village at Allaire, in marking the memory of our nation’s Pater Patriæ, the “first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.”
